You may use a newsfeed of any topic on your website to provide resources on the latest sites related to the topic of your website. Newsfeeds for each category include all the newest sites listed within that topic and its subtopics, enabling you to display a freshly-updated list of extra resources for visitors to your site.

Here is a listing of all of our top level category newsfeeds.

Arts  Business  Computers  Education  Entertainment

Health  Home  Internet  Online Shopping  Recreation

Reference  Regional  Science  Society  Travel

You may find the more specific category newsfeeds in the smaller subcategories of the topics above, within the pertinent categories of the main directory.

Here is an example of a newsfeed (of the Arts category) displayed using javascript. A Perl script is used to generate the javascript from the XML source.




Here is the code for displaying the feed as shown above:
The parameters for the above are as follows and are configurable.

• remote = the full URL of the feed
• name = y or n for whether to show the title of each item or not
• desc = y or n for whether to show the description of each item or show the list of links only
• num = number of items to show
• wid = the width setting for the list display

A variety of technical solutions in a diversity of back end programming languages can be made available for use in displaying these feeds. If you are in need of such a solution, special requests may be made via our forums or directly through the contact form.
